I am finding Chrome does interact with IE so I would load it. In fact, I cannot think of a single reason not to load it. In fact, all new computers that I setup for customers no matter who they are for I always and I mean I always make sure Adobe Flash and Reader are loaded no matter what. Lately been doing Java for finding I am needing it more now than before.

My job has blocked Europe by the firewall which means I can't access this site from the office anymore. So I will barely be here if at all. In case you cared.
